A Mother’s Love, A Daughter’s Fate

Set in Haiti and the Dominican Republic in the early 1900s, this novel follows Jesula and her daughter, Etienna, as they struggle against war, oppression, and the dangers lurking in their homeland. With American soldiers occupying Haiti and rebels fighting for control, young girls like Etienna face the threat of being forced into labor—or worse.

Jesula is left with an unbearable choice: keep her daughter close and risk losing her to war, or send her away in hopes of giving her a safer future. It’s a decision no mother should have to make, yet one that has shaped the lives of countless women throughout history.

Through vivid storytelling and rich historical detail, Robert Beckstedt brings to life a harrowing journey of strength, loss, and the painful cost of survival.
